We made the trimesters pass quickly!

[Carlyp1990]

Just had the mother of all contractions, made me feel a little sick and dizzy :-/ fingers crossed I'll get more.

I'd definitely ask about goin home amy. You never know your body may relax enough at home to allow your labour to begin xxx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Baby is fine he's had a good party in there the last day or so. I'm just feeling so angry and I'd never ever take induction again. My body's been forced into something it doesn't and wasn't ready to do.

They said If no progress after examination I will need another tablet that stays in for six hours, then examination again. So so so fed up now I just want my baby. I need to get back to my daughter at home too, so If no progress I might have to make some serious decisions. I'm suprised this doesn't stress babies out!

 

[sethsmummy]

They should only do 48 hours hub then your supposed to get a day or two break. I'm sorry nothing's happening ladiesvthat really sucks for you all xxxx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Well the pessery was 24 hour and this tablet was 6 hour, if I need another tablet itl be another 6 hours.

Oh I gave up hope yesterday. Tara hope you and the boys are ok Hun xx

Amy I would discharge yourself. What's the point being stuck in hospital getting stressed out. You will be more relaxed at home with Scott and Madeleine xx

 

[Ziggie]

Definitely. Plus stress and adrenaline actually stops contractions so it's a vicious cycle. You might actually progress more at home!

 

[Carlyp1990]

How did you get on with the consultant Zig? Xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

I'm still waiting for my examination I'm waiting for Scott then he's going to give them a piece of his mind. If I find I've not progressed and they can't break my water I'm just going to go.

 

[Carlyp1990]

Don't blame you amy hope you get somewhere soon. Is it today madeleine comes back from your mum's? Xx

 

[Kiwiberry]

Amy

 

[Mummy to be x]

My mums offered to take her an extra night but she's back at work New Year's Day so today the last night she can have her. I'm not staying on this ward any longer.

Scott's just been and given them a piece of his mind she said it's the midwives up on labour ward who make the decisions so she is gonna try and get someone down to examine me now.

I will be asking what the process is if I've no change in my cervix, if they tell me more tablets I'm going to tell them no. For all I know it could take ten tablets!

Sorry ladies I'm so stressed xx

 

[Ziggie]

How did you get on with the consultant Zig? Xx

Consultant was fine, just said they recommend induction as risks increase etc. Plus they won't see me after 14 days as I'm considered high risk and they don't have a special care baby unit (thanks for that positive gem Dr lady). The hospital they will transfer me to is bigger and further away and much less appealing but I have no choice.

I had all for monitoring and everything was perfect. I consented to a sweep which she REALLY struggled with as my cervix is tilted to the left.... So it did bugger all. All she said is that it was soft. She had me in tons of positions trying to find it and ended up on all fours on the bed (the midwife!!).

So all in all no issues but feeling super deflated today as I expected I would after all this began.

My midwife is coming out Wednesday. She knows I'd still prepare to stay home if possible even after 14 days so going to discuss that plan and she may attempt to find my cervix again but I'm not holding my breath!!!!!

Come on baby.

 

[Kiwiberry]

So sorry Amy I hope they get their butts in gear.

 

[Carlyp1990]

Come on baby Zig!
at least all the monitoring came back ok and baby seems to just be very happy in there
Fingers crossed baby Zig is born at home soon without any complications

Amy the tablets are obviously not working for you and it must be super hard because your not sleeping properly either. I hope they examine you soon and make a proper decision as to the care your receiving xx

 

[sethsmummy]

Amy. This is rediculous. I hope you've either made some progress or are on your way home xxx

 

[0203]

can't imagine how frustrated you must feel mummy! I feel cheated and I only had a couple of hours of cramps!

 

[Mummy to be x]

Last examination showed no cervical change, I asked what happens if the second tablet doesn't work they said they repeat the whole process in 24 hours time. Absolutly no chance on this earth am I having all that repeated and going through all that stress again. I'm waiting till 7pm so they can check me again and if nothing's happened I'm dis charging myself.

Repeating the process isn't even guaranteed to work they said if the second process didn't work then they'd do a c-section, I wish they'd just do one now!

I'm not sure Scott's understanding my frustration either

 

[Carlyp1990]

Sending you huge hugs hun I can't even begin to imagine how your feeling. So have they inserted another pessary? Xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Yeah Hun will be checked again at 7 xxx

 

[Carlyp1990]

How are you feeling? Do you think it will have any effect? Xxx
